We need a Glenn Murray type player as a Monk team is never going to create many chances via creative football. Though we still have our main creative outlet for the last few years and have also added the creative assist monster (if he stays fit) izzy brown. So plenty of creativity there bud. My worry is having to rely on the "dud" Rhodes to take the chances we create as we have very few players known for putting the ball in the net.

Here is an opportunity to tap into Leeds, the Manchester clubs etc for loans Leeds would be a very good shout, we can offer them Westwood Seriously though they'll have a quite a few players who are going to be up to Premier league football that have experience in this league they need to try get rid of either loans or hopefully on the cheap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might just be Windass. In my 50 plus years of watching wednesday, that is one of the most depressing things I’ve ever read. We simply cannot go into next season with this squad plus windlass and -12. That would see us relegated by Christmas 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how his interview came across to me, really hope I interrupted it wrongly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We desperately need a proper centre forward though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As ridiculous as it sounds, despite the controversy I could see this happening. We could potentially get Hirst on loan for the season with no fee and them paying his wages as a sort of compensation for the way he transferred. The friendly on Saturday would suggest things have been sorted between the two clubs... You never know! He'd have to score sht loads for many fans to accept him back though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackSWFC Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Watched a bit of the Leicester Brum friendly and all I saw Hirst do was run into a CB and the CB didn’t move a millimetre, miss a sitter header from a corner, make an absolutely obis mall first touch in the box and get brushed off the ball by another CB. He’s bigger than before, but still a little boy really and he will be in defenders back pockets all game if he plays in the Championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't want him here, not because of his past but because I don't think he's got it.

CalmJimmers Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 I'm usually one for saying we've got time left yet, don't worry, but with one striker on the book so far I am worried. Need to get at the very least one striker in this week, preferably 2. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

room0035 Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Have we had any rumours on the strikers front the quietness on any transfers is somewhat worrying. I will be interest to see if there are any trialist when we play Leicester at the week end, when you see the success Sheff Utd have had picking up good free agents over the years it makes you wonder why we are so bad at it.
